Cyclists often have events that happen on a regular basis such as a weekly race series or other life events. Repeating workouts allows you to quickly plan these events out as far as you'd like in the future in just a few steps.
Adding a Repeating Workout
To add a repeating workout, add a workout as you normally would by clicking on the day that you'd like the event to take place.
Once you select the type of activity you'd like to add, click on the "Make Repeating" button.
You'll then have the option to select the frequency of this activity as well as if/when you'd like it to end.
Once you add a repeating workout, it will be added to your Calendar.
Custom Repeating
Custom Repeating allows for the most flexibility in adding a repeating workout. Some common reasons to use Custom Repeating are as follows:
- Repeat a workout multiple days a week. Maybe you do strength work every Tuesday and Thursday of the week.
- Repeat a workout every X number of weeks. Perhaps this is your test workout, which you like to do every third Thursday.
- End a repeated workout series on December 31. You might want to start a new schedule for the new year and want to change any repeating workouts after that.
To create a Custom Repeating workout, follow the steps to create a standard Repeating Workout, but select "Custom" in the Repeating dropdown. You can then customize just about everything with the workout!
Editing a Repeating Workout
Once a repeating workout is created, you can change it by right-clicking on any workout in the series and selecting "Edit Workout."
You will be given the option to Edit this event only, or all future events in the series.
- Editing this activity only will remove the activity from the repeating series. It will now be its own activity. If you edit the repeat settings, a new series will be created altogether with this activity as the start of the series.
- Editing all future activities will update all other workouts and will update the schedule going forward (if you choose to adjust it).
A Note on Copy/Move/Delete Week
While Repeating Workouts will be included in any Copy or Move of weeks, the series itself will remain unchanged. This means repeating activities included in one of the above functions will be detached from the series and new (non-repeating) activities will be created.
